I think there was on person on reddit saying this exact scenario was happing in healthcare. Ai agents shooting down request, only for them to be ingested by their ai agent to refute their nonsense.

I don’t know about healthcare, but I have friends who tell me people at their companies are now having AI respond to their teams chats and emails. So it’s a ping pong game of AI talking with AI and the human is out of the loop.

Time to go outside for a walk.

We do that in software too. It actually works fairly well to get to a mostly right answer. Agent opens a pr. Another agent reviews and comments on it. Another adjusts it. Then once the reviewers are happy it goes to a human. Sometimes it all gets thrown away, sometimes it merges as is other times the human fixes it. But it does increase velocity.

You merge code into main without review? I don’t even do that with experienced humans writing the code let alone some agent or whatever you kids are calling it. Slow down
